Rutooma Municipality is a centre located on the Mbarara Ibanda Road in the Mbarara District in western Uganda. The site of the market is a playground and was chosen for its strategic location, accessibility and popularity: an ideal place for a market that aims to become a reference point for the local community. The market, supported by Slow Food Uganda, was strongly supported by the municipal administration, which granted the use of the space. The start-up was made possible by the will of the more than 30 farmers who make up the Bwizibwera Rutooma Earth Market community.
